Life and register readings

Hüseyin Hüsnü Efendi was born in Veliko Tarnovo (Tırnova) in 1850/51 (AH 1267); the father was a farmer (çiftçi). At about 34, in 1884/85, Hüseyin Hüsnü began work in Istanbul. The first annual entry, for 1884/85, names Hüseyin Hüsnü as Ders okutma, with no place. For 1885 to 1892 the lists have no entry. The last posts were in Istanbul from 1892 to 1896. The lists have no entry for 1896 to 1925. In place of a title the lists give Vefat (death) for 1925/26. Entries spanning 43 years are rare, reached by fewer than 4 per cent of the 8,239 officials. The annual entries give no salary. The final annual entry is for 1925/26.
